The Story
Guys and Dolls concerns the loves and lives of the various Damon Runyon characters drawn from Broadway in the 1930's and 1940's. It revolves round a gambling game and the reforming influences of the Save a Soul Mission.

There are two love stories and the first involves the proprietor of “The Oldest Established Permanent Floating Crap Game in New York,” Nathan Detroit. He is devoted to Miss Adelaide who is a night club singer.  They have been engaged for 14 years but the wedding date has always been postponed because of Nathan's sudden urgency to dash off to the Saratoga Racetrack or to superintend some crap game.

The other love story concerns Sky Masterson, a high rolling gambler and Sarah Brown, head of the run down Save a Soul Mission.  She makes it her mission to save Sky from himself.

Needless to say, in spite of the complications of the plot, all ends happily and each guy gets his doll (or should it be that each doll gets her guy?).
